Feature
★ I’ve never worked a traditional job in China! Considering freelance life? Read this book first!
★ Post-95 overseas returnee author Wang Shiyu debuts with a potential bestseller, with film rights already sold for two of her novels. She captures the freedom and confusion of Generation Z with a sharp, youthful pen!
★ Can a plus-size model find love? Watch a 170-jin plus-size female model and a rugged Inner Mongolian grassland guide break dimensional barriers in a cross-cultural romance between Beijing and the pastures, directly challenging workplace anxiety and appearance-based judgment!
★ Vividly portrays the freelance community, from “no more office jobs” to “chasing dreams in a RV,” both resonating with the anti-overwork sentiments of modern youth and offering warm, practical solutions.
★ The writing is fresh and energetic, full of quotable lines, from teasing “internet giants issuing graduation certificates” (a euphemism for layoffs) to the romance of “poetry and distance right behind the steering wheel.” It’s both cathartic and healing!
Description
Jiang Xiaoling, a plus-size girl who is 170 cm tall and weighs 170 jin, faces dual challenges in her career and love life. For her career, she cannot lose weight; for love, she constantly endures appearance anxiety and critical stares. Frustrated, she goes out to relax and meets Batu, a simple yet brave Mongolian self-drive tour guide. He shows her the poetry and distance beyond daily life; she teaches him the survival rules of realistic societies like Beijing and Shanghai.
Around Jiang Xiaoling and Batu, a group of freelance friends are also stuck in their own “life bottlenecks.” How will these Generation Z youth who don’t work traditional jobs plan their futures? How will they choose their career paths?
